    He's right about Curry, he just had his number, and he happened to run into him before he fell off the proverbial cliff.

    Moochie was frustrating. He beat guys you would think he had no business beating and just barely lose to guys who had no business beating him.

    Nunn was too big for him (and likely a little better) and the Blocker fight I don't really remember too much.

    He had a habit of getting lazy.............not fat...........but lazy in the ring. I think he knew it was catching up to him in the end, which is why he retired relatively young and not beaten up yet.

    Definitely could've been great if he had the work ethic but he was lazy, one of those dudes that finds boxing easy and consequently doesn't put in the work, needs outside motivation... still, he's quite underrated, had some brilliant performances

    One of my very favorite fighters to watch when he was on
